A silver containing coating used in the human body, e.g., on an implant should be both effectively antimicrobial and non-cytotoxic to human cells. It is generally believed that the biologic effect originates from silver ions released from the coating. Nanocomposites with well controlled Ag filling factor were prepared by co-sputtering, and the silver surface concentration and the silver release were determined by XPS and ICP-MS, respectively. Here we show that only a small therapeutic window exists for dissolved silver but the therapeutic window is largely increased at the surface. While the toxicity observed for mammalian cells in contact with the bioactive Ag/TiO2 nanocomposite surface and for silver ions in solution is rather similar the antimicrobial activity is drastically enhanced at the surface. A model is proposed to explain the strong increase of the antimicrobial activity at the surface. The present results not only question well-established tests for antimicrobial activity but they are also important for the design of antimicrobial coatings, e.g., for biomedical devices. Display omitted ► Controlled preparation of Ag/TiO2 nanocomposite coating by co-sputtering method ► Comparable in vitro model for dissolved silver and silver nanocomposite coatings ► Comparable in vitro model for bacterial and mammalian cell effects of silver ► Therapeutic window for silver strongly enhanced at the surface
